[He'll gesture for you to follow; there's a sitting area a little further in, he can still keep an eye on the cats and the front door from here, so it works.]
[...I mean. Okay, so some of it is bothering him but that's all stuff that he's going to put in a jar in a drawer near his bed and never speak of until he dies, if he has his way.]
Yeah, a few things. I remembered a fat white cat named Morgrim, though she's apparently not a cat but a malakhim. No idea about who she is or why I've remembered her. Or why she isn't a cat despite looking exactly like one.
Then I remembered about some guy, a swordsman. Past me really wanted to fight him for some reason, but I don't remember his name or much else about him.
[...]
He looked like you, though. Kinda. Different hair color, but real similar in the face.
[...And moving right along!]
Then I remembered a bunch of tunnels that lead to a port or something. No idea why those were important enough to remember.
[...well, sure, we can talk about the angel cat first, I guess??]
Well, yeah, I guess. All I know is that she's not a cat, so I guess she's an angel or something.
Remembering a bit more about her certainly would be nice... I got the feeling I was pretty fond of her, I guess? I'm not really sure how to explain it. Remembering her was kinda nice, even if I don't really know anything about her.
[okay look arthur's priorities are fucking great and he got his phd in theology so i don't know what you expected here]
Malakhim are among the highest order of the angels, sent by God to be a messenger to mankind. Usually bringing divine knowledge of some sort. Admittedly, they're usually human-looking, from what I understand, and I'm not really sure why she's a cat either. But I suppose they can do what they want.
[...]
...I was able to interact with the supernatural as well. I don't know what any of them were called, though. It's good that the angel cat was nice, however.
I remembered that you were with me, watching something happen. We were up on some sort of balcony overlooking a room below. There were people down there, being consumed by some sort of void that opened up below them.
I don't know what caused it or why it happened. Just what I've told you. I do know that we didn't seem bothered by it.
Either way, I think it's pretty safe to say our past lives aren't going to be boring.
Pretty crazy to think our past lives came from the same world. What are the odds of that? Guess we'll have to keep in contact, to compare notes on whatever crazy things we remember.
[Within the realm of possibility, yeah, but completely unlikely? But that's. fine.]
I do remember using a sword at some point or another. Apparently I was good with it. I wasn't fighting humans, though - they were some of those supernatural things I was able to see, I think. Monsters.
Monsters, huh...? Sounds like it'd be fun! I remember thinking you must've been a pretty good fighter, though I'm not entirely sure why I was so convinced of that.
[...]
Guess I was wrong, huh? You didn't turn out to be a black mage. Never would've figured for you using a sword!
Unfortunately, I was a bit too angry to enjoy the fight, if such a thing can be enjoyable in the first place. Whatever caused me to fight those things in the first place apparently wasn't going over very well.
[...well i mean there was the part where he's pretty sure something broke his shoulder and he just switched hands with his sword and kept going, but that's- ]
I just know that I've never been that angry in my life.
You don't really seem like the sort to get that worked up. Whatever happened must've been pretty damn bad. I'm sure you'll remember more about it eventually.
That's fair. Seems like it'd be a pain to remember it, at the very least. If most of these memories come with some kind of feelings attached, it'd probably be really damn bad.
[...]
If it's something you ever need to talk about - that one, or anything else - you can always get in contact with me. Can't say I'll be much help, but who knows.
He doesn't know what to do with that and it shows; he's never been the most expressive in the face, and he still isn't now, but he seems a bit unsure of how to respond for a good long moment before he settles. He definitely does seem to appreciate it, however.]
Well... Likewise, of course. You can always talk to me about anything.
It's appreciated. I have no idea if things'll get bad for me, but I'll be sure to keep that in mind!
[He settles easily enough once that's out there; the whole thing really doesn't seem to bother him any, but it's not like his words are insincere. He does appreciate it, and he will remember it, should he ever need it.]
Thanks for tracking me down to talk about all of this. I wasn't exactly sure if I should contact you about it or not! It would've been pretty damn weird if I was wrong and that guy was someone else!

Malakhim...?
[...]
Malak is the singular, I'd assume, but that's hardly the point - your cat, of all things, was an angel. That's what you're telling me.

The supernatural, huh? Ghosts or something?
[Eh, you said you don't know what they were called, so anyway...]
What else have you remembered?
no subject
I've remembered you, too, if that's what you're asking. Or at least, someone who looks a great deal like you.
no subject
Yeah? You remember anything specific, or just the appearance?
no subject
